Chapter 1053 Chapter 1053
Huang Zhi sighed in his heart and wanted to argue, "She is not a prostitute, she is a girl from a good family who was kidnapped by someone——"
"You don't even have the idea of saving Fengchen. Did that prostitute trick you with her sweet words? I'm telling you, I've taken care of that matter, so don't mention it again!"
"How do you handle it?"
Huangzhou was about to speak, but suddenly covered his mouth with a look of surprise on his face.
"That whore has hooked up with you again?"
"no!"
Huang Zhi was a little anxious, "Brother, this is really not a trick!" He wanted to speak for Xu Lingqiao, but Huang Zhou didn't listen. He raised his whip and wanted to hit this foolish brother.
"Just listen to what a prostitute says. It's just a toy, why are you so interested in it?"
Huang Zhou snorted and laughed, "I'm in that kind of place every day, and I make up three stories about the life of a prostitute every day. Yesterday, her father sold her, and today she's not tolerated by her aunt. It's all true and false, and you, a thin-skinned scholar, are the only one who got fooled!"
The two men rode their horses and arrived at Huang's mansion.
Huang's elders and relatives were already standing outside the gate. Seeing this solemn occasion, Huang Zhi could no longer ask his brother about the details. He dismounted and knelt in front of his parents, "I am an unfilial child, but today I have finally lived up to my parents' teachings. With the blessing of my ancestors, I have finally made it onto the list and will not bring disgrace to the Huang family."
"My son, you deserve this honor. However, you must be humble and modest in the future. You must be a person who benefits the country and the people, so as to live up to the expectations of the family."
The old man of the Huang family helped San'er up and gave him some earnest instructions.
Huang Zhi obeyed the order respectfully. After he stood up, the old lady of the Huang family came to him and pulled Huang Zhi up and down to look at it. "This morning, a magpie was calling at the door. I thought it must be a good thing for my third son. It turned out to be true. I thought that your ten years of hard study paid off in the end."
The family told of all their hardships, and Mu Yunzhi stood in the crowd with a lonely look in her eyes.
She naturally hoped that her fiancé would be successful, but now that they were not married, she was worried that her cousin had changed his mind.
I feel mixed emotions, and I can't tell anyone about it.
The Huang family was extremely happy this day. Mu Yunzhi was congratulated, and the old lady held her hand and said earnestly, "The fruits are sweet in the golden autumn, and your aunt thought that time would be a good time to arrange a wedding for you two. How about it?"
Mu Yunzhi's face flushed, she lowered her head and said softly, "I'll follow my aunt's arrangements."
The old lady grabbed her youngest son, gave him some instructions, and also talked about marriage. Huang Zhi had some thoughts in his mind and was inevitably hesitant. After a moment, he nodded in agreement, which caused a huge wave of anger in Mu Yunzhi's heart.
After leaving the main room and returning to the guest room, she called her close maid Zhulan and whispered instructions to her.
Zhulan listened with both ears and a look of doubt appeared on her face.
"Don't worry, young lady. I will definitely find out everything. I have always heard that your cousin is very chaste. He only has a servant by his side, and rarely has a maidservant serve him."
Mu Yunzhi lowered her head, her face gentle, "If there is a maidservant that I like, I am not that petty and intolerant. I will wait until I get married and find a good day to bring her to me. It's just that -"
Huang Zhi treated her politely and courteously, without any intention of being intimate with her.
She was feeling very worried, wondering what she would do if she was jilted at her old age.
Zhulan has been serving her since she was very young, and now she has been doing so for seven or eight years. She certainly understands what the girl is thinking, "Don't worry, I think it's probably because of my cousin's personality. He is always cold and aloof."
"No."
Mu Yunzhi's eyes were dull. She was a woman and her heart was filled with thoughts about Huang Zhi, with whom she had been engaged since childhood. She knew what it felt like to love someone.
"Just find out quietly."
Zhulan nodded, thinking that if Nanny Qin were here, she would definitely have better words to comfort the girl.
After a few days of hard work, I got some exciting gossip.
While combing Mu Yunzhi's hair, she whispered what she had learned, "My cousin is just as his name suggests. From childhood to adulthood, I have never heard that my wife has placed any maids in front of him. Although he usually goes to those brothels for social activities, I heard that my cousin has never been close to anyone."
"Then there must be someone in your heart."
Zhulan quickly shook her head, "I've never heard of it. I think you shouldn't think too much about it. The old lady has already promised the marriage, so there won't be any other mistakes."
"Yes."
Mu Yunzhi looked at her pretty face in the mirror and sighed, "My heart belongs to him. It's not up to me to decide whether he has someone or not or whether I am not myself. My father is gone, and only my second uncle and aunt can make decisions for me. What does love have to do with it? What's important is to live in this mansion."
Zhulan felt a little distressed when she heard this, because when the master was still alive, he was also a governor.
The Mu family and the Huang family are well matched, and now that the master is gone, neither the aunt nor the uncle has ever thought of canceling the engagement. Instead, they value the girl even more.
After comforting her, Mu Yunzhi felt a little calmer.
After changing her clothes and putting on makeup, she went to the mistress's room to pay her respects. Huang Zhi was in the room. When he saw her coming, he stood up and greeted her, then turned around and said goodbye to his mother and second sister-in-law.
Mu Yunzhi's steps slowed down slightly, her calm face revealing a turbulent heart.
——You just don’t like me that much?
But Huang Zhi did not make any mistakes in etiquette, and when he left, he also said a few good words to Mu Yunzhi, saying that she was his sister.
The old lady of the Huang family saw it and remembered it in her heart. She sighed slightly and waved to Mu Yunzhi, "Sanlang is thin-skinned, don't take it to heart."
"Don't worry, auntie, Yunzhi is spared."
"My aunt has raised him since he was a child. She has never been like other ladies who insist on letting him know the ways of the world at an early age. His room is clean, unlike your eldest cousin who always wants to sleep outside."
After comforting her, the mother and her two children had breakfast.
Huang Zhi, on the other hand, stayed in the room with a frown on his face. It took him a long time to get up and go out, but he bumped into Huang Zhou unexpectedly.
"Sanlang! You better watch the road. Fortunately it's me. If it were my mother or sister, I'm afraid they would be knocked to the ground by you."
Huang Zhi said nothing, lowered his head and walked towards the main room.
His face was serious and his eyes were sharp!
Huangzhou looked at him and thought, Wow! This kid is going to do something stupid! He winked at everyone around him, and the servant came forward to help him grab Huang Zhi.
Drag him into his study.
After sending the servants out, he closed the door tightly and turned around to scold, "Where are you going? Didn't you pay your respects to your mother early in the morning? Why are you going again?"
As for the area within the second gate for female relatives, this younger brother was not very enthusiastic in the past.
Huang Zhi wiped his face with both hands and said, "I'm going to report something to my mother."
"what's up?"
Huang Zhou felt stepped on and almost jumped up. He stepped forward and said, "Asshole, you want to cancel the engagement?"
I saw my third brother lowering his head and brows, not saying a word.
broken!
"You took it seriously? That's not how a romantic man should act!" Huang Zhou was furious, and wanted to slap his third brother a few times. "You are on the list, but now you don't think about the palace examination, but think about that prostitute. Can you be worthy of your father and mother?"
"Big brother!"
